Customer Reviews SOREL Caribou™

I have a pair of the Caribou boots that I wear outside in any extreme cold weather. I have had them for 35 years and they are still as good as when I first got them. They are clunky and heavy, but when it's cold and snowing, I don't care so much about looking feminine -- just warm. They are the only snow boots that I've owned that keep my feet warm. I was thinking of getting a new pair, but they are sold out in my size. For those of you who have never owned a pair of these before, I wanted to let you know how long I've used mine -- hopefully the quality is still the same on the new ones.

I love these boots, very comfy and warm. Totally waterproof. I haven’t gone swimming in them yet, but for all other purposes of trekking through snow and slush, they are wonderful. Feel true to size, maybe a half size big. I’m usually a 10/10.5 and I got a 10 and have room for a thick pair of socks to fit comfortably. I also love the style, it’s a little bigger of a boot so they make my legs look skinny. A great buy all around.

Great boots! They’re warm and run true to size, in my experience. They do tend to be a little clunky/heavy, but they’re great for the cold winters and heavy snow.

Love these boots. They're great looking considering how practical they are. They're really warm and have great treads. They have a thick, soft wool lining, and though they're no Uggs (which I wear constantly), I wear them without socks to trek through the snow to get mail or bring the compost out. If I'm out for longer, I wear socks. They are big; they'll make your feet look big, and you can't wear them to drive. But if you need a real snow boot, this is a great way to to go.

These are my hardcore winter boots. They make me feel invincible to snow. They are awesome.

I love these boots! They are so gigantic, when you put them on, you instantly look 10 pounds slimmer. And because they are a little heavy, if you use them for your daily walk, you will lose 10 pounds in no time. There is no need for fancy exercise shoes with these. I am usually a seven and ordered a six. They fit perfectly with thin or thicker socks with plenty of wiggle room for my toes. And they are very, very warm. I love the black color. It goes with everything, but my favorite cocktail dress.

I ordered these for my daughter for Christmas. She had seen them on another site, but I found them at Zappos and knew that this was the better site! She loves them! They fit her true to size, they are adorable, and she says her feet have never kept so warm. Luckily for her she had them when they got hit by 2 feet of snow and ice storms! They seem very well made and are very comfortable for her. I had them the next day after I ordered them, and with free returns, why would you buy anywhere else but Zappos? Fantastic company! Great boot!

I don't know what some of these women were doing in their boots that made them think they weren't waterproof, but these are the warmest, most waterproof boots I've had since I was a little girl. Having grown up in Iowa, then spending years in Vermont, and now living in Chicago, I think I know cold, snowy winters fairly well. I've been using these boots for a couple months now and I am so, so happy with them. My feet never get cold or wet, and they have the best traction I've found (short of crampons, which I'm not going to use in a city). Also, unless you have extremely narrow feet, these boots are perfect; enough cushioning for thinner socks, but flexible enough for thick socks, too (which I think most people wear in the winter).

Zappos is the first site I go to when shopping online. I highly recommend Zappos for your shopping needs. Try it, you'll be hooked. Thanks.

The Sorel Caribou boots were purchased for my daughter and are exactly what she wanted. They fit perfectly and have already weathered a couple of snowstorms beautifully! The boots kept her warm and dry and still look great. Additionally, I was extremely pleased with the Zappos website and the free, prompt shipping. Because of this, I ordered a pair of shoes for myself.

I love these boots. I just got them in time for more bad weather. They are so soft and warm. Yes, they are bulky, but if you are used to wearing boots, they're not (they are more bulky than stiletto. Highly recommend them. I'm excited to be able to walk everywhere with dry feet this winter.

Got the boots in amazing time. They fit true to size and are very warm and waterproof so far. They look cute with jeans tucked in. A little clunky to walk in but not as bad as the other boots I have tried in a similar style. Sturdy and well made.

I can only review the service and quality of the boots. I bought them for my daughter and she requested a fine quality boot, so much so my husband said I wish somebody got me a pair. I am sure she knew of the quality before she requested them. The order and delivery time were great and the site was easy to maneuver. Thank you.

So warm and comfortable during the first big snow storm in the NE. They're trendy with jeans tucked in and thick color socks rolled down. I love them.

I have been very pleased with my Sorel Caribou boots. I was looking for something to keep my feet warm when I shovel the driveway or am playing out in the snow with the kids. I wear them with a pair of "Omniwool" or "Smartwool" socks and so far they have kept my feet toasty warm. Only on one occasion did my feet feel a little cold, but I had been just standing around. Once I got moving again they warmed right up. It is miserable to have cold feet and these boots have been great for keeping my feet warm! I ordered my normal size and they were just right. I would highly recommend these boots.

These are so comfy and warm. Better than slippers! I ordered them in black. True to size, unlike previous comments.

These boots are a little clunky, but I love them. Traipsing through the rain and snow has never been more satisfying. I wear a size 6 1/2 to 7, and I sized down to a 6.

I tried these on at a local store and found that I needed a full size smaller in the buff color. I did not buy them, but instead ordered them from great Zappos in black, the same size that fit at the store, only to discover I need my normal size 8! Frustrating for sure, although it might help others in deciding. Either way, Zappos will return and exchange better than any other. Love that!

Love these boots! These boots are super comfy (I could wear them every day!), they are super stylish, and they kept my feet toasty warm on my recent trip to RI!
